Do You Have Loose Stools After Taking Your Supplements?

We have received a few questions on loose stool, so I thought we could cover that today. Loose stool, simply, is when fecal waste is more liquid than solid. A healthy bowel movement, is one soft stool which is easy (comfortable), and quick to pass. You should not need to be on the toilet more than 45 seconds!

Sometimes, people start receiving the symptoms of loose stool after starting a supplement, even a good, high-quality supplement. While this can be due to low-quality ingredients, it can also be caused by an over-abundance of nutrients (particularly minerals such as magnesium and calcium). This is because the body is trying to absorb all the nutrients that it can, but pre-existing damage to the intestinal lining keeps that from happening. Therefore, it is prudent for people to increase their gut health quickly.
